I dled the post-rock mix last night, but I haven't dropped it onto my iPod yet. Nick's mix is the bee's knees.

I got that Yellow Pills comp today so...mixes? What mixes?? :D

― Laurel, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

I'm saving the post rock mix for exam time in two weeks.

― Jenny, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

speaking of, pwerhouse sound at hideout sometime this week. and we're going to see THE THING there on friday night if anyone's interested.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

laurel, the guy who put that comp together is the guy i just bought the shoes lp from on ebay. also, "yellow pills" from 20/20 is on a mix i'm making. hope it's not on the comp.

― chicago kevin, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:36 (nineteen years ago)

Ooh, The Thing.

I was kinda disappointed by the PH record. :(

― Jordan, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:39 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah -- I dunno. I thought it was a little overwhelming. Why double-album when there's already so much stuff out there? The Thing, however, will blast my ears off. I'm looking forward to it. Not looking forward to teaching the next morning, though.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

Kev, no 20/20 here! Ooh, Shoes LP....

― Laurel, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:41 (nineteen years ago)

That sort of spaz-jazz is the kind of thing I never ever want to listen to at home but is great live.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:42 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, he didn't really have to include both bands doing the same tunes. Also I don't like how it sounds like a jazz record (ie extremely dry and clean) but they're playing heavy riffs and dub grooves, stuff that begs for some production. It's also kinda jammy.

BUT

I bet it would be great live.

― Jordan, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:46 (nineteen years ago)

There's a pretty long PHS song in Dan's movie. BTW there are discussions about distribution, but I should be --and will be-- vewwy quiet about that.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 21:50 (nineteen years ago)

I was just looking at the final exams from last year and the one for my class contained both of the following sentences (to be combined with other, unposted sentences to make a complex sentence)

1. Kevin has been studying English.
2. Jordan couldn't go running.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

― Jordan, Monday, 16 April 2007 22:12 (nineteen years ago)

Note: I did not write this exam.

― La Lechera, Monday, 16 April 2007 22:16 (nineteen years ago)

So tired.

― Jeff, Monday, 16 April 2007 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

Hey, it's summer today! I went for a long (for me) run outside and now I'm drink Jesse's beer that ended up in my car.

― Jordan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 00:19 (nineteen years ago)

"I'M DRINK!"

― kenan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 00:32 (nineteen years ago)

I think I'm drink a beer now too.

Is that Justine Bateman?

― jaymc, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 04:52 (nineteen years ago)

It's Alanis Morissette.

This is from the ihavenogayfriends thread

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

That's a real medical chart.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 04:58 (nineteen years ago)

I remember seeing something like that when I worked at the Nursing Board offices.

― dan m, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 04:59 (nineteen years ago)

I remember seeing it ON MY PROM NIGHT.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 05:11 (nineteen years ago)

Or something like that.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 05:11 (nineteen years ago)

The Alanis cover sounds so much like a Tori cover that I wonder if it's kind of a parody of her.

― Eazy, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 06:14 (nineteen years ago)

Though Tori A.'s cover of VU's "New Age" is pretty good. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" is not, nor is "Famous Blue Raincoat".

― Eazy, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 06:15 (nineteen years ago)

And just to make a late-night posting trifecta here, reading about the VT shootings a few minutes ago and following a link to a blog lead to discovering this pretty good Blacksburg[url=[Removed Illegal Link] band[url].

oh man you guys I got drunk last night for no goddamn good reason, and I'd been SO GOOD, but shit, I guess I felt the need to be a grand old asshole on the gun control threads et al.

― kenan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 12:22 (nineteen years ago)

Eh, to be fair to you kenan, there was a lot of asshole-provoking shit on those other threads. I don't really think you were wrong with any of what you said, I just wouldn't have been able to beat my head against a brick wall as long as you did. Some people just aren't worth trying to argue with.

Meantime, one of my three co-workers has decided to stop speaking to me since one of my projects got shifted over to him. I guess it ruined his days of not doing anything at all. Makes for a fun work environment though.

― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 12:36 (nineteen years ago)

I did descend into total nonsense once or twice.

― kenan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 12:46 (nineteen years ago)

is there an icon for shame?

― kenan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 12:47 (nineteen years ago)

GIS for "shame icon":

So my fiancee nearly got sideswiped by a CPD car on the way home from work last night when the driver cut her off. She flipped them off, not as subtlely as she had thought, and got pulled over. Both cops came up to her car and started to give her shit, but she called him on cutting her off and he actually had nothing to say. He stammered for a bit, apologized, and they got back in the car and left. I was pretty amazed that it ended the way it did.

― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 12:54 (nineteen years ago)

Does her car have a video camera mounted on the roof?

― dan m, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:02 (nineteen years ago)

awesome that it ended the way it did!

― kenan, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:03 (nineteen years ago)

Haha.. no. The apology was my favorite part, unexpected.

― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

Good morning! I'm wearing open toed heels for the first time this year. :-D

― KitCat, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:28 (nineteen years ago)

morning. i couldn't sleep again last night and had more weird dreams. there's this girl i had been thinking about who keeps showing up in them so i think i have some unresolved shit there that's manifesting itself in my nocturnal subconscious. i think tonight i will go to a bar and give my subconscious a fighting chance.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:31 (nineteen years ago)

That sounds like a plan.

I'm watching my ebay listing end. It's fun watching the price go up.

― KitCat, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:39 (nineteen years ago)

Yay! It sold for just 4 dollars less than I bought it for! Happy dance!

― KitCat, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:48 (nineteen years ago)

Yay, Sarah! Where is it now? XP oh good.

― Laurel, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:49 (nineteen years ago)

OMG MY MOM AT THIS EARLY HOUR DRIVING ME CRAZY.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 13:53 (nineteen years ago)

Gad- she comes up with weird fucking shit and then goes on and on about it--we're trying to get some repairs done around the house up in Michigan and between her and the redneck handyman I'm wanting to jump out of the window.

We agreed to paint my dad's bedroom off-white. She calls me and tells me that the handyman said he wanted to put in paneling. I call him, he says "Your mom suggested the paneling, not me." I call her and she says, "No, I never suggested paneling. So we'll just paint it blue(!) like we originally decided."

And we all agreed to fix the front porch, and agreed on a price. Then somehow in 2.5 days they both get the idea that the porch deal is off.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 14:04 (nineteen years ago)

Good job Jon's fiance!

And good job Jesse for taking care of the Widow K*hr. You're a good son.

― Jenny, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 14:07 (nineteen years ago)

I am now afraid to go into the VA Tech thread. I think I'll just stay out and go do laundry instead.

― Jenny, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 14:08 (nineteen years ago)

It drives me crazy because I can see myself in what she's doing--messing around with very simple things until they get complicated. It reminds me of the ways I am dysfunctional. Plus I slept poorly and had stupid dreams that disturbed what shitty sleep I did have.

Let's look at soothing pictures sloths, shall we?

No joke, I feel better already!

― Jesse, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 14:08 (nineteen years ago)

Stay off the VA Tech thread. It's built on an Indian burial ground.
